Looks like coin wrapping machine damage, so just pmd.

Not from a wrapping machine. Most likely from a Misaligned Die Strike. The Anvil die (which the coin sits in) and the Hammer die (which strikes the coin) are slightly misaligned when the striking process occurs. The reverse strikes normally because it is held by the collar but the Obverse die strikes the coin slightly off center.

Slightly misaligned but still within spec. Part of the design would have to
run off of the edge to have any value.

that kind of rim doubling is within expected tolerance

I believe that is what is referred to as "railroad tracks."
